COLONEL RAMIZ MELIKOV: TIME WILL COME AND UNITED AZERBAIJANI PEOPLE
AND STATE WILL SWEEP AWAY ARMENIAN OCCUPANTS FROM KARABAKH AND 7
REGIONS ADJOINING IT
YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 25. ARMINFO. "The time will come and the united
Azerbaijani people and state will sweep away the Armenian occupants
from Karabakh and 7 regions adjoining it," said Head of the Press
Service of the Azerbaijani Defense Ministry, Colonel Ramiz Melikov in
his interview to the Azerbaijani "Zerkalo" newspaper.
He disagreed with the opinion that Azerbaijan loses the information
war, adding that official Baku and the whole Azerbaijani people try to
inform the world community of the deeds and policy of Armenia. "How
could the officers of the Armenian armed forces which had occupied the
lands of the neighboring state and brought the Azerbaijani people so
troubles occur in Baku to participate in the exercises. Such an
impudence is characteristic only to Armenians," Melikov said. He said
that Azerbaijan tries to avoid military resolution of the conflict by
all means possible. Melikov said that Armenia pretends that it is a
supporter of peaceful resolution of the conflict, at the same time
placing a huge quantity of illegal weapons in the occupied
territories.
As regards the cancellation of NATO exercises "Cooperative Best Effort
2004," Melikov said that NATO leadership went on such step in
conformity with its principles. "Armenia does not support peace both
in the South Caucasus and in the whole Europe, otherwise, it would
have given its agreement for peaceful settlement of the conflict
during 10-year-long Armenian-Azerbaijani negotiations," Melikov
said. He added that cancellation of the exercises will not affect
Azerbaijan-NATO relations, and that NATO leadership "must take into
account the fact that Armenia considers cancellation of the exercises
in Baku its own victory." He said that Armenia's participation in the
Cooperative Best Efforts 2004 pursued the only goal of making a blow
on the idea of peace-making and mission of cooperation, and it
succeeded. "We hope that the leadership of the largest international
structure will not allow Armenians to interfere into its affairs in
future," Ramiz Melikov said.
